Kansas City denizens point us to this comment that's exceptionally insightful in terms of explanation to the public at large . . .

"Good Shoot" at the pd level simply means "justified shooting" in that it was legal and unfortunately a necessary act in a particular incident. This officer's "opinion" based on the information he has was that the shooting was justified. 1: I am LE and don't see it that way. 2: It does not mean he is something racist or ugly or it's okay with him to shoot black people so get over yourself . . .

Critics and law enforcement watchdogs argue that the terminology in and of itself reflects a divisive mentality that must be changed. Yet, keeping the comment in context is important.

Meanwhile, the social media hot mess continues to resonate across the nation as the weekend approaches . . .

Alas, negroes are the greatest liability in our nation, not some vast, rich, untapped asset. Laws once held in check negro dysfunction, but with the civil rights victories of the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s, negroes were liberated from being held accountable for their actions, because our leaders (both in private and public sectors) were fearful of collective retaliation.

So it was a good shoot. It's OK to shoot black people.

The rest of us human Missourians have to wait until open season starts in January.

WHY does this officer think that the shooting was justified? Because the victim -- who had committed no crime, but who was greeted with FOUR officers with drawn weapons -- did not "follow orders". (Other than holding his hands up, I guess.)

If this officer thinks that simple failure to follow even a lawful order by an officer justifies shooting a citizen, he should find other work. One that does not involve being armed, preferably.

You are a moron, and obviously a cowardly little pussy hiding behind your keyboard. Did your wife step out with a black guy? ����On another note... why doesn't Tony talk about the stupid activist any more? She lost her kids, threw them under the bus, and now someone is raising them that is not even blood while she smokes meth and poles left and right. Just curious..

So, do you people think we should give this man a medal for the clever way he has diffused the racial tension?

The whole point of this nation wide protest is the cavalier way unarmed black men are being killed by white police officers. No it wasn't a good shoot. He was unarmed. This member of the KCPD has shown himself to be a dangerous racist. This isn't the 1950's, that's not acceptable.

Though I do not believe that all or even the majority of police officers are ignorant control freaks, law enforcement obviously attracts this element. Why does the KCPD hire people with such blatant small penis issues? Can't they administer some personality tests and eradicate this kind of ignorance? Bad on you, KCPD, for allowing anyone to hold authority over the citizens of KC who thinks a shooting is justified because "they should have obeyed the first time." Disgusting lack of respect for life.

If you read the local news from Tulsa, you'll see the police found a vial of PCP in the man's automobile. I reckon there is a better than 90% chance he was under the influence at the time of his tragic death. If you've ever been around someone who has used PCP, you would know that person is, in essence, psychotic. It is the scariest drug out there, as far as affecting human behavior. If the toxicology report comes back positive for PCP, based on my experience, I would be very sympathetic to the police officer's fear for her physical safety.

And Phil, my god man, knowing who you are and where you come from, I must say that you are absolutely shameless.

4:01 If this protest is all about white cops shooting blacks the why the fuck are they destroying Charlotte, NC over a black cop shooting a black man? Sounds like your personal racism is fucking up your objective reasoning to me.

Everything's up to date in Kansas City. And the truth shall set you free. Don't be be Bleu...tell the truth. Invisible is the word that you heard. It's got meaning. Now is the time and place and the moment.
